[PATCH 07/19] writeback: Factor writeback_get_batch() out of write_cache_pages()

From: Christoph Hellwig
Date: Thu Jan 25 2024 - 04:01:24 EST


From: "Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)" <willy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This simple helper will be the basis of the writeback iterator.
To make this work, we need to remember the current index
and end positions in writeback_control.

[hch: heavily rebased, add helpers to get the tag and end index,
don't keep the end index in struct writeback_control]
